A unit of resolution used for printers and scanners. This indicates the number of dots used to represent an inch. The higher this value, the higher the resolution. Software that works as a bridge between a computer and a peripheral device. A standard for LAN transmission lines. Characters added to a file name for the recognition of the file format. The file extension is added after a dot of a file name, for example, ".bmp" or ".jpg". The acronym for File Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used for transferring files via the Internet, an intranet or other TCP/IP network. The shading levels of an image. Larger number of the levels can reproduce smoother transition of the shading. A form of presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information shifting from black to white. A method for presenting the shading of an image by using different sizes of black and white dots. A large capacity storage device for storing data. The data is retained even after the power is turned off. The acronym for HyperText Transfer Protocol.

On the other hand, IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), the next generation protocol, adopts 128-bit IP addresses. An IP address is assigned to every computer or other device connected to the Internet. The acronym for Joint Photographic Experts Group, One of the file formats used to save image data. (The file extension is ".jpg".) The compression ratio is generally 1/10 to 1/100. JPEG is an effective method to compress photographs and other natural images.

Kerberos arranges an authentic site within the network to provide two-phase authentication processes of users login and the use of network resources, allowing users to be securely and efficiently authenticated. The acronym for Local Area Network. This is a network constructed by connecting computers on the same floor, in the same building, or in neighboring buildings. The acronym for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, a protocol used to access a database that can manage E-mail addresses and environmental information of network users on the Internet, intranet, or other TCP/IP network. A storage device used for storing data temporarily. Some types of memory retain data even after the power is turned off, while others not. A TIFF file that contains multiple pages. 10-4
